So almost nobody in the US or Canada then... I get 800/20 for ~140/month, including the $30/month fee for "unlimited" data. My other choices are starlink or DSL which are a fraction of the bandwith or speed.
I self-host everything that's "home-only" at home but use syncthing, rsync and a few other thing to replicate important data to a mix of S3, backblaze, google drive and some PVs attached to a hosted k8s cluster.
It works well enough.
A Bell 1.5Gbps/940Mbps FTTH connection is $120 without a deal if you're in an area it is available, but then you go three blocks down the road and all you can get is a 300/30 cable connection for $90.
A little further down that road, and maybe only DSL or Starlink is available.
My solution to this is to partner up with a couple of good friends who also run their own servers. We all hold backups for each other.
Edit: turns out umbrel is even easier to install. Suppose that and a trusted remote webdav install will serve most storage and file management needs.
> Single-device wired speed maximum 4.7Gbps.

Don't fall into the meme that you need IBM or HP server class hardware and 5Gbps fibre to run a homelab. I used to have IBM 3650x with +200Gb of RAM that I sold and bought 3x RPi4. I'm currently backing up 600Gib from my other servers, and it's completely fine that it will take a few days and nights ¯\(ツ)/¯ It's a hobby, I'm not paid for it, I'm not paid to maintain 99.999%, it's OK if it's not the best shit on /r/homelab
